I’m at it again (on behalf of Sydney University)
This time I want to know:
Do you socialise with your work colleagues outside of your work place (as friends) or else do you prefer to keep business and pleasure very much separate? |

We’re quite a sociable team and we sometimes go out for tea and or a few drinks. Most of us have worked together for a long time and there’s now only 8 of us left on our particular team. We all get on really well and can leave work stuff at work so we have fun. We invite other people from work to come along with us and sometimes some do. As we all work from home now it’s lovely to get together on a social basis.

My little work team goes out now and then. I'm lucky that I work with people that are lovely and we get on well outside of work. I've worked in jobs where this wasn't the case and I realised that it was making me miserable. Work takes up so much of your time it makes it better when you're surrounded by nice people. |

I've got two close friends I've known 10 years or more that I met through work.
I don't really socialise with work colleagues now, apart from the Christmas party and occasional lunch. I have to be on my best behaviour these days, so, it's not as much fun.. |

No. I'm the boss, so choose not to.
I will if it is a work related event, but other than that no.
Which is at times hard, as although it is the correct approach, I'm very sociable, so I just remind myself I have friends for that |

Always been separate until the job I was in for almost 7 years had the two most loveliest ladies, so I still keep in touch with them and have seen them for lunch over the years. They've been wonderful support over the last few years x |
